For Android users who enjoy Spotify, offline listening offers a convenient way to enjoy music without an internet connection. While this feature is exclusive to Spotify Premium subscribers, there are still ways for free users to enjoy their favorite tunes offline. This guide explores options for offline listening on your Android device, whether you’re a Free or Premium Spotify user.
Spotify Premium subscribers (Individual, Family, and Duo plans) can download playlists for offline listening using the Spotify app.

The music download feature in Spotify is exclusive to Premium members and free users can only download podcasts. However, third-party tools like Spotiflyer and Pazu Spotify Converter can help you download Spotify music for offline listening on your Android device, even with a free account.
SpotiFlyer is a free Android app that lets you download individual Spotify tracks as MP3 files. It’s easy to use: simply paste the track’s URL into the app, and it will download the song.
Note: Spotiflyer is limited to single-track downloads. It doesn’t support downloading entire playlists or albums. So, while it’s a convenient tool for occasional downloads, it’s not ideal for large-scale music transfers.
